Last Sunday there was a special event in honor of the European release of the new “Pirates of the Caribbean” film. For that reason, the cast of the film came to the Resort with Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom.

Although everyone was able to attend the ceremony and almost every hour there was an announcement that the ceremony at Central Plaza began at 16:00 and everyone was invited to come, only the invited from The Walt Disney Company France, Disneyland Paris and press had a chance to see the show. The ordinary guests who were in the park only got a seat towards the entrance to Adventureland where they couldn’t see anything.

The organization was terrible, many Cast Members walked around who gave constant contradictory information to the guests who asked where they could stand. I stood for a long time before the ceremony began at the entrance to Frontierland, after Cast Members said we could not stand there, I moved also towards Adventureland. As a result, many of the first guests lost their spot and during the ceremony they ‘did’ allow guests standing at the Frontierland entrance to see the show. Also in Main Street USA guests were allowed, but this was too far from Central Plaza (the closest place was at Gibson Girl) to see anything and you had to be satisfied with a big screen to follow it.

There were many fans of Johnny Depp in the Disneyland Park with special t-shirts and photographs to set up a signature, but unfortunately, it was only for holders of a Disney Infinity Annual Pass, who won a contest, that had the chance to get close to the actors. All the other guests have been able to enjoy some of the pictures online.

Maybe next time Disneyland Paris has to keep an event, which is intended for a limited group, fully private. And not inviting everyone every hour through the speakers, and also mentioning it on the Park Program, to send the guests later to places where there is almost nothing to see.

Fortunately, there was more than just the very short ceremony at Central Plaza with the actors. From 11 am till afternoon there were also special animations in Adventureland such as special meet and greets, crazy pirates and creepy pirates in the rocks of Adventure Isle.
